Hi,

I've configured EDGE to auto sign in fgor my domain users successfully over the summer holidays but for some reason now its stopped working.

The error I am getting is

We can't sign you in at the moment
The Microsoft Edge team has been notified of this issue. Please try again later.
Error code: 5, 2, 0

No other error is displayed so I am stuck.

I've removed all Group policies for the user but it still persists. Any ideas?

    We were experiencing the same issue" Error 5,2,0 " and some users just had "Error 0"

    I was able to resolve the issue by making Edge open in compatibility mode for Windows 7. However we found that the compatibility mode only stuck for the initial launch of the application. Any time the user closed the application and reopened the compatibility mode settings were reverted.

    We ultimately had to add a registry entry to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers
    to always have Edge open in compatibility mode for Windows 7.

    New String Value
    Value Name: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe
    Value Data: WIN7RTM
